Charts prepared from the Pike’s Peak Test records indicate a longer r life for your motor by lubricating it with Germ-Processed oil. K Too, you will save substantially on your gasoline cost, and in oil g (expense, by using this oil. And the fact that Germ-Processed oil k penetrates metal surfaces means, that after starting your car on a Eg cold morning you can safely drive at top speed with less likelihood of damage -. for CONOCO’S film is already on the job. (Less Carbon—Less Cost—More Mileage and Less Heating—More L Compression. All these things mean a better all-around motor. It fu is truly unusual for a motor oil to so excel competition as Q CONOCO did in the Pike’s Peak Tests. Tested out on the Pike’s C Peak Highway, scene of many famous automobile tests, was a C memorable struggle for supremacy: . . On the one side, three jj of America’s representative and popular oils—on the other, Germ Processed oil. And CONOCO (jerm-Processed Motor Oil won, by all tests applied. ^ Only CONOCO can make Germ-Processed oils. CONOCO can ff give you these new motor oil merits, including penetrative lubricity.

This all-talking version of the famous stage play of the same name, a play which has endured for more than ten years of constant legitimate theatre bookings, has taken its place with the finest screen entertainment of motion picture history. It is the type of story which arouses tremendous and spontaneous audience response, the type of story which tugs at the heart strings, touches the emotions and brings audiences upstanding through its sheer naturalness and human qualities. This talking picture produced by Windsor Picture Plays, Inc., and directed by Albert Ray, one of the industry’s leading directors, has been aptly termed “A page from life, a page brimming with pathos, humor and stark realism” and we feel certain that patrons of the Royal Theatre will be heartily in accord with our enthusiasm when they are accorded their first view of this one hundred per cent dialog dramatic sensation."
